So sorry Dave

 

[Phoenixbaby]

wish i knew what happened

 

[newfishy]

Im sorry, it always makes you feel worse when you dont know why. You tryed, and gave him a good home, that was all the more he could ask for.

 

[Phoenixbaby]

what id rather know is why? i treated him with what was advised, nothing helped, i feel bloody useless, i kinda blame myself

 

[newfishy]

thats the thing, you did everything in your power to help, but it just could have been something he was born with that got the best of him. Im sorry

Thanks stang, as i spoke to u about it the other day, i thought he was getting better, well he was, the bloat was going and he was bubblenesting, he just took a massive turn for the worse 2day, not sure why

all my water stats were 0, so everything is fine, even the PH of the water is fine, if anything his water and setup were perfect, i just wish he'd of made a full recovery, i feel responsible for his death n wish i could have done more

Don't blame yourself, Phoenix, you did everything you could.
As sad as it sounds, it was just one of those things. Sometimes we lose a fish and never know the reason why.
Just remember, you aren't to blame and it happens to us all.
